Hold them to account
After some heavy mudslinging, I feel that unless all the echelons of the Labour Party resign to make way for a new beginning, including radio commentator Manuel Cuschieri, there will be no light at the end of the tunnel for the MLP. This will only invite another long period on the opposition benches.
Alfred Sant should face an inquiry. Legal action must be taken without fail not only against whoever is proven corrupt but also against those who concoct accusations. Irrespective of their DNA.

If Dr. Sant is such a gentleman, he should NEVER have accused the Prime Minister of being corrupt, especially in public. If he had any inkling of any corruption, he should have raised the issue in Parliament - he had five full years to declare any knowledge of corruption, but he didn't. So, let us assume for a moment that there was something wrong, why did he not go to the police? Withholding information is interfering with the law, as I understand it, and therefore he or anyone else would become an accomplice.
When questioned about this very subject on Xarabank, Dr. Sant found a lame excuse and said, "Why should I? I do not have a position of authority to do that!" Immediately he became aware of the childish response and said that one reason was that the Police Commissioner was just a paraventu!!!
I think that those living in glass houses should not throw stones.
Mud slinging is the content of John Camilleri's poor excuse for a contribution.
Even new candidates like Georg Sapiano, managed to get in this advert, I don't know for what reason. Isn't that mudslinging?
You state that 'Sant and MLP are being proved right' ..... to date no one has been proved right, we need to wait a bit longer to comment concretely on the JPO case. However being proven right on just one case (possibly) does not justify all that mudslinging campaign like the one we just had.
We shall wait a bit to see how many of the dozen or so libel suits against Dr. Sant go in his favour and how many against.
My impression is that Sant and the MLP are being proved right with every day that passes.
